New member from California

Post by vannagain »

Hi , I'm the owner of a 72 st I've had since 1977 and a 74 gt parts car. Believe it or not my 20 year old son has an 89 mr2 and a 2013 Scion frs (Toyota gt86) , my mom owns a pristine 2000 gt and my step dad owns a very clean sport 800. That's just the tip of the ice berg. My family has owned a Toyota franchise since http://s574.photobucket.com/user/vannag ... sort=3&o=4

Yes. We've been told that she could expect to get $1,000,000 if sold at auction. All of the experts say that hers is the most original (oem parts) 2000 gt in the United States. There will be one on the auction block at Pebble Beach this year and she'll be there to watch the bidding. That's an old photo but the car remains in excellent condition today. Should be interesting.
The Celica has a blown engine (18rc) but I have a fresh one waiting in the wings. I'm planning on starting a complete restoration in the near future. I never seem to get more than 50,000 miles on any motor. This will be the third or forth engine.
I'll work on posting more current pics.
